I can lose 3 in a row often now. If I’m not harvesting resources, I’m practicing for War - often times hitting a tank with off-colour ‘B’ mono teams where I’m rotating in or out a couple heroes to finalize a roster for a particular tank.

We see a lot of Kunchen tanks, and I have a medium-strong Yellow ‘B’ team and a mediocre ‘C’ team. The B team features a trio of 4stars, Maxed Viv and a 3/70 Joon. The ‘C’ team gets into some dregs. I’ll often test these teams against 4000, 4200, 4400 power teams… Trying to learn what is reasonable, possible, and just improbable with them.

So yeah, I use raiding as practice and purposely make it hard for myself sometimes.

Yeah that offense team seems heavily dependent on Sabina due to everybody either being support or multihit which Cyprian feeds on, and you’re not the right color stacks to brute force him down with tiles alone, so everything except Sabina exacerbates the situation. Mitsi kills herself. Tiburtus kills himself. Red Hood kills herself. Boldtusk helps everyone else on the team kill themselves.

Sometimes I find that’s why I lose is because I’m bringing the wrong offensive team comp or underestimating the tank. I rarely lost to Guin (besides bad boards obviously) because I don’t care if she’s +1 or +15 I’m going full mono purple. I don’t underestimate Guin tanks.

But I lose more often to Elkanen tanks because I underestimate him. I used to lose more to Kunchen tanks before I understood how dangerous he is, so I minimum 4-1 those.

But in that particular microcosm of that attack vs that defense, in hindsight (always 20/20) there are a lot of self-defeating paths and only a few victorious ones.

For me, this would be an example if I’m facing a heavily emblemed Boril tank. Overreaction? Maybe. Likelihood of not having a dispeller up? Pretty low.

So I’m curious, what motivates you to Rematch and fight again vs. just moving on to the next team?

I always fight the re-matches. I’m always testing my teams and heroes. If I lose, I do a re-match to see if it’s my team set up or just rng. Having three chances to test it usually gives me that answer.

I don’t care about cups or where I am on the leaderboard. I use raids to help me improve my tactics for wars and quests.

I just decided that I’m gonna stop rematching. More often than not if I have a ■■■■ board against a team and go for a rematch I will have a bad board again. Don’t know why. Might be my brain. But it feels totally worthless considering the enemy can still revenge you. Time to learn to move on.

Losing three times againts this team… The board literary did combos the sides I was actively avoiding. I didn’t have green tiles to charge Telluria or Heimdall in three matches. Fine is bad luck… But why the hell the bad luck happens in rounds of three?
